has been acclaimed by press and
critics. Following a world tour
Mme. Halevy made her American
debut at Town Hall and was ac-
claimed over night as a most
gifted and fascinating mime.
The New York Times stated about
her concert, "it was a remarkable
performance; this youthful art-
ist can at once essay the roles
of singer, dancer and mimic.
The rhythmic precision and the
grace of her moving hands hold
an absorbing fascination for the
onlooker, as they describe the
folklore of the Near East." This
is the first visit of Sarah Osnath
Halevy in the South, and sever-
al Zionist organizations and or-
ganizations of the Jewish com-
munity are planning to hold a
recital, in which Miami Jewry
will have an opportunity to see
this outstanding diseuse who was
the pride of Palestinian Jewry,
and who has thrilled audiences
in New York and other large
American cities.

FRANCE'S ANTI-JEWISH LAW
Jewish emancipation in France, exactly 150 years old. was
annulled last week when the Petain government introduced
for France laws similar to Germany's.
Had it not been for the war. the Jews of France would have
celebrated this year the 150th anniversary of their liberation,
just as the French nation would have celebrated last year the
anniversary of the French Revolution.
But the traditions of the French Revolution are now a mat-
ter of the past in the "new" France. The Petain government
has turned the clock back 150 years, and with it has reduced
the Jews to second-class citizensat least until the time when
the democratic world defeats Hitler and brings about the au-
tomatic downfall of the present pro-Hitler French regime.
The apologetic statement which the French government;
has issued parallel with the publication of the laws rescinding
Jewish rights, shows the guilty conscience which the authors
of those laws have. No other step could have done as much
damage to French prestige as the following in Hitler's anti-Jew- ,
ish footsteps. No other action could have branded the Petain
regime so directly as pro-Hitlerite as the cancellation of Jewish
rights of which France was so proud.
Affected by the French anti-Jewish laws are not only the
French Jews but also foreign Jews residing in France. For
years a country open to all exiled and persecuted, France was
the asylum for about 150,000 foreign Jews, the majority of them
from Poland, Rumania, Hungary and stateless Jews. Now all
those Jews will, under the new law, be placed in French con-
centration camps.
The establishment of concentration camps for foreign Jews
is a step which has so far not been made even by Hitler's
Germany. Whatever the apologetic statements of the Petain
government say, they will not blot out the shame which the
anti-Jewish policy of the present French leaders has brought
upon France. As for the Jews outside of France, their only
consolation is that the people in France are not behind their
government.
FEDERATION NOTES

by ISAAC JOFFE
Executive Director
One of the most interesting
meetings of the budget commit-
tee was held in the form of a
dinner meeting on Tuesday eve-
ning. October 22. which was ad-
dressed by Mr. Henry Montor
of New York City, executive
vice chairman of the United Jew-
ish Appeal.
Mr. Montor, in a stirring and
thought-provoking address, out-
lined in detail the work being
done at this very moment by the
agencies included in the United
Jewish Appeal, namely. Joint
Distribution Committee. United
Palestine Appeal, and National
Refugee Service. He pointed out
that the question of the hour was
not whether or not it was possi-
ble to bring assistance to our
stricken brethren overseas (that
is definitely being accomplished
even in German controlled ter-
ritory) but how much more
money is needed and should be
raised by American Jewry for
overseas needs.
His remarks were greeted with
I enthusiastic response, and the
'committee voted unanimously
;for an increased allocation to
United Jewish Appeal from the
forthcoming 1941 campaign.
The meeting was also addresses
(by Mr. Aron B. Tart of New York
City, on behalf of the American
'Ort Federation, who described
the work done by ORT in re-
training Jewish youth in Europe
,for work in trades and agricul-
ture. The ORT is one of the
beneficiary agencies of the Mi-
ami Jewish Federation.
At a recent meeting of the ex-
ecutive committee, it was an-
nounced by Mr. M. J. Kopelowitz.
chairman of the 1941 campaign
committee, that the date for the
campaign has been set for the
ten day period commencing Jan-
uary 5. 1941, and that campaign
headquarters have been secured
at the Hotel Alcazar. He further
-tat, d that, immediately follow-
ing the board of directors' meet-
ing on November 7. at which time
the goal for the 1941 campaign
will be announced, definite plans
for the campaign will be an-
nounced.
In our temple on Rosh Hash-
onah we had trumpet music.
This followed and supplemented
the blowing of the shofar.
It was something brave and
stirring. Everybody's head turned
to look up to the choir's balcony
as if to discover the source of
these strange and beautiful voices
in Israel.
The voice of Israel had been a
lamentation; these new voices
were a valorous challenge. I
myself could feel that being a
Jew might be more than a sitting
in sack cloth and ashes. I felt
that I. a Jew. should be going
places. I was vaguely aware of
some new Sinai to be ascended.
Some one said to me after-
ward: "For the moment I felt
as if being a Jew had to do with
something like a crusade."
(Though I suppose crusade
isn't the word he should have
used, considering its remote his-
toric connotations.)
But that's what one could feel
in the brave summoning of the
trumpets. Being a Jew had be-
come largely a pain; tins was a
joyous call to get up and walk
and be courageous.
To tell the truth. 1 have been
giving myself to some heretical
thoughts on the matter of I I ing
a Jew. At my ago 1 should have
it all definitely settled for good
and fold my hands and wait for
the reward that is in store for
the pious.
A fellow as old as I (though
I am not really as old as I make
out) shouldn't have a doubt. Yet
tragic and bewildering events
make sophomores of old hands
at being Jewish who thought they
were graduated long ago.
There have been moments, in-
deed, when I have petulantly-
said that I am tired of being
Jewish. Not that I have thought
of being anything else; I was
just tired. Tired of being the
I whipped boy. tired of pain, tired
| of reading that I am a pariah
; about whom something must be
I done, tired of being forever on
;the defensive, tired of meetings
in which we brood and talk about
our problems, tired of answering
defamers who are like people
who might ask whether 1 beat
my wife and how ofteVi.
I didn't know what to do
about my being tired. I couldn't
run away from what I was. even
if I wanted to. If being a Jew
is a racial identity. I couldn't
change that. I couldn't, for ex-
ample, be a Scotchman instead
iof a Jew. If being Jewish is only
la religious identity. I couldn't
'escape the Jewish pain by being
,something else religiouslyA
|Christian, a Mohammedan or a
I Buddhist.
So I have just sat with folded
hands and have kept on being
a Jew in the only ways that
Judaism is being practiced in
these timesin lamentations, in
having meetings to denounce de-
famers, in giving as generously
as I am able to the various drives.
in dutifully going to synagogue
on some of the holidays
It was in this mood that I W( nt
to the Rosh Hashonah service.
I folded my hands and thought
rebelliously on the whole matter
of being Jewish: What for? Why
do I keep this up? Is my being
Jewish very important?
The trumpets seemed finally
to give the answers. I must con-

Germans didn't find in Holland
when they marched in was the

which the Netherlands have long
been famous ... It wasn't en-

paid press agents herald as the
savior of France, needs two Ges-

trymen Vichy-washy is what
Broadway calls the French gov-
ernment nowadays All of
which reminds us that one of the
most objectionable books written
on the fall of France is the one
by Rene de Chambrun. entitled
"I Saw France Fall" ... In case
you've forgotten. Reno is the son-
in-law of Laval, and shares his
father-in-law's prejudices about
democracy The British War
Office isn't very happy today
about having rejected the Jewish
offer of a Palestine army of 100.-
000 at the beginning of the war.
. If Britain had a well-
equipped army of 100.000 in the
Near East today the prospects
cf the coming battle for the Suez
canal would look better for her.

We're grateful to Winchell for
the warning that at 341 Madison
Avenue. New York, are located
the luxurious offices of a so-
called news service The per-
son in charge is a Dr. Manfred
Zapp. a trusted agent of Herr
Goebbels His job is to spread
Nazi thinking among the Ger-
man language newspapers in this
country And the FBI might
look into the report that Dr.
Zapp and his staff are equipped

station, to contact Berlin
Aside to Danton Walker: Some-
body is trying to pull your leg

It now seems that the real rea-

LITERARY NEWS
The book reviewers seem afraid
to tackle Maurice Samuel's "The

Samuel's interpretation of anti-

In the trumpets there was no

SHOCHET Managing Editor Entered as second class matter July 4. 1930 at the Post Otice of Miami. Florida, under the Act of March 3, 1879 SUBSCRIPTION ONE YEAR SIX MONTHS $2.00 $1.00 FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25. 1940 VOLUME 13 NUMBER 43 PLAIN TALK TRUMPETS Br AI si FRANCE'S ANTI-JEWISH LAW Jewish emancipation in France, exactly 150 years old. was annulled last week when the Petain government introduced for France laws similar to Germany's. Had it not been for the war. the Jews of France would have celebrated this year the 150th anniversary of their liberation, just as the French nation would have celebrated last year the anniversary of the French Revolution. But the traditions of the French Revolution are now a matter of the past in the "new" France. The Petain government has turned the clock back 150 years, and with it has reduced the Jews to second-class citizensat least until the time when the democratic world defeats Hitler and brings about the automatic downfall of the present pro-Hitler French regime. The apologetic statement which the French government; has issued parallel with the publication of the laws rescinding Jewish rights, shows the guilty conscience which the authors of those laws have. No other step could have done as much damage to French prestige as the following in Hitler's anti-Jew, ish footsteps. No other action could have branded the Petain regime so directly as pro-Hitlerite as the cancellation of Jewish rights of which France was so proud. Affected by the French anti-Jewish laws are not only the French Jews but also foreign Jews residing in France. For years a country open to all exiled and persecuted, France was the asylum for about 150,000 foreign Jews, the majority of them from Poland, Rumania, Hungary and stateless Jews. Now all those Jews will, under the new law, be placed in French concentration camps. The establishment of concentration camps for foreign Jews is a step which has so far not been made even by Hitler's Germany. Whatever the apologetic statements of the Petain government say, they will not blot out the shame which the anti-Jewish policy of the present French leaders has brought upon France. As for the Jews outside of France, their only consolation is that the people in France are not behind their government. FEDERATION NOTES  by ISAAC JOFFE Executive Director One of the most interesting meetings of the budget committee was held in the form of a dinner meeting on Tuesday evening. October 22. which was addressed by Mr. Henry Montor of New York City, executive vice chairman of the United Jewish Appeal. Mr. Montor, in a stirring and thought-provoking address, outlined in detail the work being done at this very moment by the agencies included in the United Jewish Appeal, namely. Joint Distribution Committee. United Palestine Appeal, and National Refugee Service. He pointed out that the question of the hour was not whether or not it was possible to bring assistance to our stricken brethren overseas (that is definitely being accomplished even in German controlled territory) but how much more money is needed and should be raised by American Jewry for overseas needs. His remarks were greeted with I enthusiastic response, and the 'committee voted unanimously ;for an increased allocation to United Jewish Appeal from the forthcoming 1941 campaign. The meeting was also addresses ( by Mr. Aron B. Tart of New York % City, on behalf of the American 'Ort Federation, who described the work done by ORT in retraining Jewish youth in Europe ,for work in trades and agriculture. The ORT is one of the beneficiary agencies of the Miami Jewish Federation. At a recent meeting of the executive committee, it was announced by Mr. M. J. Kopelowitz. chairman of the 1941 campaign committee, that the date for the campaign has been set for the ten day period commencing January 5. 1941, and that campaign headquarters have been secured at the Hotel Alcazar. He further -tat, d that, immediately following the board of directors' meeting on November 7. at which time the goal for the 1941 campaign will be announced, definite plans for the campaign will be announced. In our temple on Rosh Hashonah we had trumpet music. This followed and supplemented the blowing of the shofar. It was something brave and stirring. Everybody's head turned to look up to the choir's balcony as if to discover the source of these strange and beautiful voices in Israel. The voice of Israel had been a lamentation; these new voices were a valorous challenge. I myself could feel that being a Jew might be more than a sitting in sack cloth and ashes. I felt that I. a Jew. should be going places. I was vaguely aware of some new Sinai to be ascended. Some one said to me afterward: "For the moment I felt as if being a Jew had to do with something like a crusade." (Though I suppose crusade isn't the word he should have used, considering its remote historic connotations.) But that's what one could feel in the brave summoning of the trumpets. Being a Jew had become largely a pain; tins was a joyous call to get up and walk and be courageous. To tell the truth. 1 have been giving myself to some heretical thoughts on the matter of I I ing a Jew. At my ago 1 should have it all definitely settled for good and fold my hands and wait for the reward that is in store for the pious. A fellow as old as I (though I am not really as old as I make out) shouldn't have a doubt. Yet tragic and bewildering events make sophomores of old hands at being Jewish who thought they were graduated long ago. There have been moments, indeed, when I have petulantlysaid that I am tired of being Jewish. Not that I have thought of being anything else; I was just tired. Tired of being the I whipped boy. tired of pain, tired | of reading that I am a pariah ; about whom something must be I done, tired of being forever on ;the defensive, tired of meetings in which we brood and talk about our problems, tired of answering defamers who are like people who might ask whether 1 beat my wife and how ofteVi. I didn't know what to do about my being tired. I couldn't run away from what I was. even if I wanted to. If being a Jew is a racial identity. I couldn't change that. I couldn't, for example, be a Scotchman instead iof a Jew. If being Jewish is only la religious identity. I couldn't 'escape the Jewish pain by being ,something else religiouslyA |Christian, a Mohammedan or a I Buddhist. So I have just sat with folded hands and have kept on being a Jew in the only ways that Judaism is being practiced in these timesin lamentations, in having meetings to denounce defamers, in giving as generously as I am able to the various drives. in dutifully going to synagogue on some of the holidays It was in this mood that I W( nt to the Rosh Hashonah service. I folded my hands and thought rebelliously on the whole matter of being Jewish: What for? Why do I keep this up? Is my being Jewish very important? The trumpets seemed finally to give the answers.
